    This is ridiculous, you don't really KNOW who is botting and who is not.

    I use a program that parks a media player on top of FFXIV and I watch tv while keeping the crafting window visable and just press A for hours on end.

    I'm not replying to anything ever while I'm doing this. I guess I'm a botter >.>

    My point is, stop knee-jerk tattling on everyone, because you just don't know.

    The way crafting is now, I would say its entrapment if someone got called for botting. Its a shoddy brainless system that SE really should be ashamed of.

    A lot of people say this, but it is not an excuse, it's just rude. I also play in windowed when crafting to watch netflix or read things on forums, and with proper chat filters and window sizes i can still see when someone is trying to talk to me.

    depends on your setup I guess, I have FFXIV up on one monitor while I watch stuff/browse forums on another monitor. I do usually see it when people tried to talk to me, though if I'm paying attention on something else, I may not notice it for awhile
